Naples begins negotiations: Elmas should return to the Partenopei!
The football world is looking forward to the developments surrounding Eljif Elmas. SSC Napoli is planning to bring the 25-year-old midfielder back to the Italian coast. According to information from Feverpitch Negotiations with RB Leipzig have already begun. This is particularly interesting because Elmas played for Napoli from 2019 to 2024, scoring 19 goals in 189 games. An extremely solid commitment that makes such thoughts of returning understandable.
However, in January 2024, Elmas moved to RB Leipzig for around 24 million euros. He is under contract there until 2028 and is viewed by coach Antonio Conte as a preferred candidate for the coming season. Conte is hoping for a loan deal that could be a good solution for everyone involved. But RB Leipzig seems to be keen on a sale, which makes the negotiation process more complicated.
The situation near Leipzig
The current numbers speak for themselves: Elmas has not yet scored a goal in 16 Bundesliga appearances this year. However, during his loan spell at Torino FC, he delivered an impressive performance, scoring four goals in 13 Serie A games. This could give Naples hope that Elmas will find his way back to his old form in terms of sport.
It was also no secret that Torino FC toyed with the idea of signing Elmas permanently, but ultimately decided against it. This could potentially play into Naples' hands if they manage to bring Elmas back and give him the necessary trust.
